UPS reports that my new wheel is out for delivery. I don’t know why I’m so excited about this. Maybe because I’m ready for a wheel that I can trust.
Last night I broke my rule about solvents and bikes. I took the cassette off and gave it (the cassette) a thorough soaking and scrubbing. It’s clean and sparkly and prepped for its new home. Cassettes have no moving parts and the solvent did not go anywhere near the bike itself, but still. Maybe it’s the exception that proves the rule.
